Superhydrophobic Covalent Organic Frameworks Prepared via Pore Surface Modifications for Functional Coatings under Harsh Conditions

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been widely used in catalysis, energy storage, environmental protection, and separation. However, they require a long assembly period (∼3 days) and complex synthesis conditions; differences in water resistance have restricted their overall versatility. In this paper, the preparation of COF-DhaTab was optimized, and this process can be easily performed in air. Thus, it is feasible for the scale-up of...
